cage the elephant - back against the wall lyrics

“back against the wall”

tonight i’ll have a look
and try to find my face again
buried beneath this house
my spirit screams and dies again

out back
a monster wears a cloak of persian leather
behind the tv screen
i’ve fallen to my knees

i said you got me where you want me again
and i can’t turn away
i’m hangin’ by a thread and i’m feelin’ like a fool
i’m stuck here in between
the shadows of my yesterday
i want to get away
i need to get away

blanket of silence
makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
burn all the evidence
a fabricated disbelief

pull back the curtains
took alook into your eyes
my tongue has now become
a platform for your lies

i said you got me where you want me again
and i can’t turn away
i’m hangin’ by a thread and i’m feelin’ like a fool
i’m stuck here right between
the shadows of my yesterday
i want to get away
i need to get away

[chorus:]
now you know
yeah you got my back against the wall
oh god
i ain’t got no other place to hide
chained down
like a sitting duck just waiting for the fall
you know
yeah you got my back against the wall

deep in the jungle
camouflaged by all the falen leaves
a hand holds up the sky
while shamefully i make my plea

the alter’s callin’
but my legs won’t seem to stand
guess i’m a coward
scared to face the man i am
